Thoughts in the time of Corona

This may be many things but as a start is a place for people to record thoughts of things, or pets, or plants in this strange time where most of the world was asked to stay home, cars stayed in driveways, kids didn't take the bus to school, workers dialed in to work, tvs streamed video more hours a day than not, people no longer had personal space at home, stress levels at times were elevated, and humor was shared.

School - by Potato Sack

This quarantine has helped me realize that I actually enjoyed school to an extent. At school I just can go through my day half asleep and follow along because my brain is being directly told what to do.
